Hey man get well soon! You sure you have Lyme and the flu? That has to be brutal!
That seal is a piece of cake with the crank out of the way

Yeah well you guys are entitled to your opinions,...all I know is that you are having issues from that choice.
Nah the damn rubber seal keeps getting pushed in and won’t seal around the shaft.On my mustang,and my truck-I had to use the repair sleeve to keep it from seeping/leaking
Lyme came back negative luckily. It was just a nasty assed virusHey man get well soon! You sure you have Lyme and the flu? That has to be brutal!

Haven’t really started. Still needs front tires and an alignment before anything else.How is the tuning going? Will we see a dyno day soon?

I’ll email it over, i got a short one yesterdayDatalog? I wanna see
I had a minor freak out this morning. I'm off work today, I got my coffee, cracked open the laptop at the kitchen table, and looked at my datalog from yesterday.
RPM? 3600 and change... OK
AFR? Safe.
Timing? Seems reasonable.
kPa? 112.... Man, it's been so long, I forgot what that translates to in psi... *opens Google*
112kPA = 16.8 PSI
Y'all, I about spit my fkn coffee everywhere. How in the HELL was I making 16 psi at only 3600 rpm at half throttle?????
And then it hit me.... this is absolute pressure. Completely forgot that atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa.
Alright, I'm awake now.
Yeah, thanks!
Your math is wrong sir... everything 7 kPa is equal to 1 psi of boost, which is what you Googled...BUT
You started with the wrong number, since atmosphere is 100kPa. You need to subtract the 100kPa then divide it by 7 so.....
112 kPa - 100 kPa = 12 kPa
12 kPa / 7 (conversion of kPa to boost) = 1.7 psi of boost
Now back to our regular scheduled program...Get this on the road
They're not " vacuum" hoses. The hoses show boost pressure to the gate.I removed my damper AGAIN last night and pumped a bunch of black RTV into the gap between the timing cover and oil pan where the oil was coming from.
Steve sent me an updated tune, so I'll load it in this evening and go motor around some - hopefully leak free this time - and see where it gets us.
I don't have any vacuum hoses hooked up to the WG right now, so it's probably wide open at idle because of the wussy little bic pen spring that's in there now.
Maybe not in function, but I'm using vacuum hose as the material for my Boost Reference Hoses.They're not " vacuum" hoses. The hoses show boost pressure to the gate.
